The new Mexican investment follows another one in the region. In March, BMW announced it will invest also one billion dollars in expanding the current Spartanburg factory in US. Here BMW produces the X5, the X6, the X3 and the future X4. Only the X3 is sourced from Europe.

The one billion dollars will be used to increase annual production of Spartanburg factory to 450.000 units by the end of 2016.
